2 Wa 1
1 Apre lanmò Akab, wa peyi Izrayèl la, peyi Moab pran lèzam kont moun Izrayèl yo.
Then Moab rebelled against Israel after the death of Ahab:
2 Okozyas, wa peyi Izrayèl la, pran yon so, li soti nan balkon lakay li, li tonbe sou twati palè li lavil Samari. Li fraktire nan tout kò l'. Li voye moun al pale ak Baalzeboub, bondye moun Filisti yo ki te gen tanp li lavil Ekwon, pou konnen si l'ap refè.
And Ahaziah fell thorow the lattesse windowe in his vpper chamber which was in Samaria: so he was sicke: then he sent messengers, to whome he saide, Goe, and enquire of Baal-zebub the God of Ekron, if I shall recouer of this my disease.
3 Men, zanj Seyè a pale ak pwofèt Eli, moun lavil Tichbe a, li di l' konsa: —Leve al kontre mesaje Okozyas, wa peyi Samari a. W'a mande yo si pa gen Bondye nan peyi Izrayèl la kifè yo pral pale ak Baalzeboub, bondye lavil Ekwon an.
Then the Angel of the Lord said to Eliiah the Tishbite, Arise, and goe vp to meete the messengers of the King of Samaria, and say vnto them, Is it not because there is no God in Israel, that ye goe to enquire of Baal-zebub the god of Ekron?
4 W'a di yo tou men mesaj Seyè a voye bay wa a: Li p'ap leve sou kabann kote li kouche a paske li pral mouri. Eli leve, li fè sa Seyè a te mande l' fè a.
Wherefore thus saith the Lord, Thou shalt not come downe from the bed on which thou art gone vp, but shalt die the death. So Eliiah departed.
5 Lè mesaje yo tounen al jwenn wa a, wa a mande yo: —Poukisa nou tounen?
And the messengers returned vnto him, to whome he said, Why are ye nowe returned?
6 Yo reponn li: —Paske nou kontre ak yon nonm sou wout nou ki di nou: Tounen al jwenn wa ki te voye nou an. N'a di li: Men mesaj Seyè a voye ba li: Kouman? Pa gen Bondye nan peyi Izrayèl la kifè ou voye moun al pale ak Baalzeboub, bondye lavil Ekwon an? Poutèt sa ou fè a, ou p'ap leve sou kabann kote ou kouche a, ou pral mouri.
And they answered him, There came a man and met vs, and saide vnto vs, Goe, and returne vnto the King which sent you, and say vnto him, Thus saith the Lord, Is it not because there is no God in Israel, that thou sendest to enquire of Baal-zebub the God of Ekron? Therefore thou shalt not come downe from the bed, on which thou art gone vp, but shalt die ye death.
7 Wa a mande yo: —Moun ki te vin kontre nou an epi ki di nou tout pawòl sa yo, ki jan li te ye?
And he saide vnto them, What maner of man was he which came and met you, and tolde you these wordes?
8 Msye yo reponn li: —Li te gen yon gwo rad fèt ak po bèt sou li ak yon sentiwon po bèt mare nan ren l'. Wa a di: —Se Eli, moun lavil Tichbe a.
And they said vnto him, He was an hearie man, and girded with a girdle of lether about his loynes. Then sayde he, It is Eliiah the Tishbite.
9 Li voye yon kaptenn ak senkant sòlda al chache Eli. Lè yo rive, yo jwenn Eli chita sou tèt yon ti mòn. Yo di li konsa: —Sèvitè Bondye, wa a pase ou lòd pou ou desann.
Therefore the King sent vnto him a captaine ouer fiftie with his fiftie men, who went vp vnto him: for beholde, he sate on the toppe of a mountaine, and he saide vnto him, O man of God, the King hath commanded that thou come downe.
10 Eli reponn: —Si m' se yon sèvitè Bondye vre, se pou dife soti nan syèl la tonbe ni sou ou ni sou sòlda ou yo pou l' kankannen nou! Lamenm, yon dife soti nan syèl la, li kankannen ni kaptenn lan ni senkant sòlda li yo.
But Eliiah answered, and saide to the captaine ouer the fiftie, If that I be a man of God, let fire come downe from the heauen, and deuoure thee and thy fiftie. So fire came downe from the heauen and deuoured him and his fiftie.
11 Wa voye yon lòt kaptenn ak senkant lòt sòlda. Lè yo rive, yo di Eli: —Sèvitè Bondye, wa a voye di ou desann koulye a san pèdi tan.
Againe also he sent vnto him another captaine ouer fiftie, with his fiftie. Who spake, and saide vnto him, O man of God, thus the King commandeth, Come downe quickely.
12 Eli reponn: —Si m' se yon sèvitè Bondye vre, se pou dife soti nan syèl la tonbe ni sou ou ni sou senkant sòlda ou yo pou l' kankannen nou. Lamenm, yon dife soti nan syèl la, li kankannen ni kaptenn lan ni senkant sòlda li yo.
But Eliiah answered, and saide vnto them, If I be a man of God, let fire come downe from the heauen, and deuoure thee and thy fiftie. So fire came downe from the heauen, and deuoured him and his fiftie.
13 Fwa sa a ankò, wa a voye yon lòt kaptenn avèk senkant lòt sòlda. Lè kaptenn lan rive, li moute jouk kote Eli te ye a, li mete ajenou devan Eli, li di l' konsa: —Tanpri, sèvitè Bondye! Pitye pou mwen ak senkant sòlda mwen yo. Nou la pou rann ou nenpòt sèvis. Sove lavi nou!
Yet againe he sent the third captaine ouer fiftie with his fiftie. And the thirde captaine ouer fiftie went vp, and came, and fell on his knees before Eliiah, and besought him, and saide vnto him, O man of God, I pray thee, let my life and the life of these thy fiftie seruants be precious in thy sight.
14 Dife soti nan syèl la, li tonbe sou de lòt kaptenn yo ak tout sòlda ki te avèk yo! Tanpri, pitye pou mwen.
Beholde, there came fire downe from the heauen and deuoured the two former captaines ouer fiftie with their fifties: therefore let my life nowe be precious in thy sight.
15 Lè sa a, zanj Seyè a di Eli konsa: —Ou mèt ale ak msye. Ou pa bezwen pè l'. Eli leve, li desann ak kaptenn lan, l' al jwenn wa a.
And the Angel of the Lord said vnto Eliiah, Goe downe with him, be not afraide of his presence. So he arose, and went downe with him vnto the King.
16 Li di wa a konsa: —Men mesaj Seyè a voye ba ou: Paske ou voye moun al pale ak Baalzeboub, bondye lavil Ekwon an, tankou si pa gen Bondye nan peyi Izrayèl la ou ta ka al wè, ou p'ap janm leve sou kabann kote ou kouche a, ou pral mouri.
And he saide vnto him, Thus saith the Lord, Because thou hast sent messengers to enquire of Baal-zebub the god of Ekron, (was it not because there was no God in Israel to inquire of his worde?) therefore thou shalt not come downe off the bed, on which thou art gone vp, but shalt die the death.
17 Okozyas mouri vre, jan Seyè a te di l' la nan bouch Eli. Okozyas pa t' gen pitit gason. Se Joram, frè li, ki moute sou fotèy la nan plas li. Lè sa a, Joram, pitit gason Jozafa a, t'ap mache sou dezan depi li t'ap gouvènen nan peyi Jida.
So he dyed according to the worde of the Lord which Eliiah had spoken. And Iehoram began to reigne in his steade, in the seconde yeere of Iehoram the sonne of Iehoshaphat King of Iudah, because he had no sonne.
18 Tout rès istwa Okozyas la ansanm ak tou sa li te fè, n'a jwenn yo ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Izrayèl yo.
Concerning the rest of the actes of Ahaziah, that he did, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
